This card reminds you of that delicious moment when you’ve cracked the code. The message becomes clear: continue to stay open.
The Creative Breakthrough card embodies the essence of a burst of inspiration—a sudden, vivid flash that allows you to perceive things in an entirely new light. It’s almost as if the idea is coming from outside of you, yet it emerges from within. It’s both.
There will be many more moments like this; it’s not just one. It’s ongoing.
A creative breakthrough often feels like a discovery that arrives when you least expect it. There’s an element of surprise and ease. It tends to show up when you’ve cleared your mind. It happens when you’re not actively thinking about the thing you’re working on. Somehow, the process of switching gears allows the clouds to clear. New ideas often arrive in the shower, while driving, or during something random—when your mind is far from the project itself.
This card is a celebration of that burst of inspiration—that sudden, vivid flash. And then, you are ready to take action. It gives you energy. You feel a renewed sense of purpose and momentum and you cannot wait to get back to it!
The meaning of this card applies not just to creative projects but also to your relationships with the people you value and love. It represents a profound realization, something that goes deep below the surface and often shifts how you’ve been thinking about a situation.
It can be a complete change in direction. It can be that beautiful realization when the puzzle pieces fall into place. But it’s not guided by time—you can’t control when it happens.
“Any artistic breakthrough begins with saying “I don’t know!”
— Andrew Scott, Actor
PAINTING HERE
I have always loved this painting that Vincent did of this garden in the south of France. It's bursting with life. It’s a sea of wild flowers, which I invite you to imagine that it represents all your ideas and your creative projects.
